A carious exposed 16 requiring Endodontic treatment.


Initial working length determination using hand files.
Closer inspection of pulpal floor reveals another Mesiobuccal orifice. A faint canal can also be seen on radiograph.
The incidence of MB2 canal in Maxillary Ist & 2nd Molars is quite high and time should be devoted to to its location and treatment. 


Both MB canals have been located. It exibits a Type III  canal anatomy.


Post obturation radiograph .Protaper rotary files were used for canal preparation.
